I apologise to the lounge
The incessant kicking of my old threads had already stopped being funny a month ago, but some people simply would not stop. I am sorry to anyone who has been irritated by all this.

It really is silly.

4. Thank you, billy.
I knew it wasn't you kicking the threads. And besides, there's always the "hide thread" options for those who are easily annoyed. ;)

6. Sweetie, you weren't the one kicking those threads.
Anyone who needs to can "hide thread". By the way, I loved the pictures from your holiday. I'm going to look at them again later.

:pals: :loveya: :hi:

26. Wasn't me, but I do need to have more sex
But then again, wouldn't more sex do everyone a world of good.

9. Don't worry about it, Billy
You have zip to aplogize for; the "Ignore" and "Hide Thread" buttons are there for a reason, and those who would rather complain than use them have themselves to blame.

You're jake with me:)

12. Unfortunately
Use of the "ignore" feature means that they ignore me. :(

15. There is no need to apologize for the bad behavior of others...
I'm just sorry it keeps happening when you were quite vocal in your wishes for it to stop. :hug: :loveya:

16. It's not your fault Billy
You weren't the one doing the thread-kicking.

I think your Goodnight threads are cute, btw.

17. Don't worry about it Billy!
Part of the fun of the lounge is stuff like that! Even though I've fallen for the many "goodnite" threads, it to me just adds to the fun of the lounge!

19. I think maybe you are the one owed an apology
I was away when all that was happening, but saw some of the aftermath. I'm sorry you had to wake up to find that, sweetie. Really sorry. :hug:

27. The lounge should apologize to you
The following features are available on DU or in life

"Hide thread" is available, anything that irritates anyone can be hidden so they control their own irritation for any perceived transgression.
Those that continued to antagonize after you stated it bothered you should use the feature known as common decency or class.

It's pretty ridiculous when one needs to apologize for simply saying goodnight.

Btw...you vacation pics were nice...we have a Hare Krishna vegetarian restaurant here in Laguna Beach...I loved to eat there and hear the chanting in the background since the front was the restaurant and the back was the church...the Krishnas also chant on Main Beach on some days...quite joyful music
